Teri: Since I gave the blanket as a gift to my son and daughter-in-law when they got married, I cannot check its thickness. However, the blanket is definitely heavy, which is both a plus and a negative for those who don't want something heavy on top of them while they sleep. If I had to guess, I would say that the blanket is about 3/8" thick, and it is very warm and durable, without frizzy particles filling the air around it. I got it for them as it will be very warm when they want it, and will last them the rest of their lives. Not relative to your question, but still potentially important, is that the blanket cost a couple of hundred dollars less from Amazon than it did from the Hudson Bay Blanket people. I don't know of any other source for wool blankets of this calibre, and wish I had one myself. Hope this helps. B.

10" is what I came up with as well, and unlike D. Numanfortier, I don't put other supplies in the middle compartment... I have 6 to 8 skeins of yarn standing on edge, depending on the project I'm working on, and while they do hold each other up to a point, they often collapse to the middle or as the skein gets down to the end, it collapses which cause 1 or 2 of the others to fall over, blocking the yarn somewhat... which means I have to stop what I'm doing, stand everything back up and try to form the remainder of the one skein to continue to feed yarn. I've come up with a plan to take a 4" round mailing tube, cut to height for the center. I'll make 8 slits in the bottom about 4" high, and cut cardboard inserts 8" tall, by 6" wide, and put slits in them from the top down to 4" from the bottom. I'll slide one per slit on the tube and when done, I'll have what looks from the top, like a bicycle wheel with spokes going out... effectively giving me 8 compartments to stand the yarn in. the middle can hold my tunisian needles and patterns... Hope this helps.

I'd use at least worsted weight. The stock yarn is a soft, barely spun, two-ply, chunky acrylic. My daughter is currently using a sock weight, but we're going to line her purse with fabric since it's so lacy. You could use a double thickness of sock, maybe.

This was a gift for my daughter so I don't have it handy to measure. She used it as a wall tapestry for a long time. The yarn I think had some sizing used on it but once laundered I imagine it will be very soft. It really is very pretty.

The 14 are thicker needles, suitable for denim. They can leave wholes in lighter weight cottons. Denim/jeans thread is thicker too. I use 11 for most fabrics and 8-9 for lighter or more fragile fabric (silk, linings etc.) Use 11 for wools, cottons.

hi, I have both, and I think I like the pink that you are asking about more. It is slightly darker but it is a beautiful shade of pink. You can contact me at any time. I don't get on the puter that often but will be glad to answer any questions whn I am on here. Thanks for asking, Betty Jackson

The set that I got has a line under the 6. But the colors are too similar. The six is a neon pink and the nine is a little darker pink.

Hi there, Pink Crystal will be back in stock in a few more days. I can't give the exact day, I just know it's already on it's way over to our warehouse right now along with a few other popular colors we just ran out of. Thanks so much for your patience :D

It is not as thick as the horse blankets I am familiar with, but, that said, it is a strong, rugged material. I bleieve it would hold stitches well. I used fabric glue on my project. The worst part about it was the color....it was red red, not, burgandy red.

Thanks for the advice PBM216. I will work on my proficiency for awhile with the stock string. Is 36 the correct length for a Vixen?

These area goof thickness. I am stuffing them full of yarn and haven't poked a hole in one yet!

Frankly, I would not assume that. I ordered 4 units, expecting to receive 12 skeins, and received 4 skeins. When I asked for the additional skeins, the customer service agent I spoke with was quite rude (from the company, not Amazon). I ended up having to file a complaint with Amazon, who refunded my money. I still don't have all the yarn I need to complete my project.

I tend to pull from the center of a ball to knit so I often rewind the left overs back into a ball. You don't need a whole lot. The cone is one size but I think the reason it's for up to 10oz or so of yarn is because the bottom on the cone comes out further and the arms that wind the yarn are long enough to fit around the ball that is being wound- if that makes sense. For amounts that are next to nothing I just wind into a small ball with my fingers and throw into the pile with others- these are like next to nothing quarter sizes. Hope that helps

None - you shouldn't use that heavy of line in this lightweight reel.However, you could do what I do and use a braided line, which is much stronger than monofilament lines for the same diameter. I've got 6lb test Suffix braided line and it has a rated breaking strength of 20lbs, but the diameter of a typical 6lb test line (about the maximum diameter that should be used with this reel). The braided line costs 2-3x what a monofilament line would cost, but I figure it saved me much more than that in lost tackle, as I lost only two lures in a week's solid fishing and they both caught on the backside of heavy logs and frayed on the edge of the log.
